Miyagi-Do Karate

I was thinking the same. Let them get the ball at the 40. Doesn’t matter.

I saw that in real time— that was near the end of the game. His last TD run. I think the taunting I saw was going on starting in the early 3rd quarter, well before that. you might be right though that it was going both ways. but still— it was a lot of cocky fan engagement from the ravens, when the game was far from over. I texted some friends during the game about how there was so much time left and the ravens are going to look like major choke artists with all this early celebration. Didn’t think it would actually happen! I think Harbaugh is a great coach. But even his head seemed to be more in the celebrating and revenge stuff, instead of closing out the game.

yup. Wait a few hours and then post some emoji and some gibberish. That’s the next step. After that, a “SMH” and backtracking tweet on the rumors.

No, just my impression from the shots on TV. Stuff like say flowers waving to the crowd on the sideline?

I really don’t get why the ravens were so into taunting the crowd last night. It was super weird. All night long. I don’t think I have seen them do that to other teams before. It was like personal against our fans for some reason?

Was just reading that James cook was in and out of the blue tent several times during the game. I didn’t know that. i will say— I was expecting it to be a blood bath with injuries against Baltimore. Yet we came out pretty unscathed.

By cramping, do we mean bleeding from the spleen?

smart. Want to keep Bass’ confidence high with statements like this.

when he injured his knee, he was tweeting all these vague tweets, giving thanks to God. We were trying to figure out if that was good news or not about the knee. i will say that I deleted twitter a few years ago and it’s the best decision I made. I don’t get immediate access to sports news now (have to rely mostly on this board!), but I also don’t have to be inundated with viral street fights and other bottom feeder content.

I feel like I am getting too old to be trying to decipher these cryptic tweets all the time. I spent days studying Hairston’s tweets.

That flowers hand-off was so stupid. On top of that, flowers just gave up on the play, and slid. He actually had some room to try to gain some more yards. He put them in 3rd and long.

have been looking for something on this too. I honestly felt like I didn’t notice any of our interior defenders (except Oliver).

you almost need a smaller dude like hurts for it. He really sneaks in there. You can’t even see him.

I was thrilled with Bosa. Finally a guy that gets consistent pressure on the edge.

KC kind of figured this out, and now we can’t run it. Don’t think we were successful a single time last night. Tried going left, then way left, and then right— nothing worked. They need to re-think this play.

Agreed. 1) on the first try, you have to run. We got an extra yard on the penalty. Just run cook off tackle or something. 2) on the second try, it was a playground type of play, which seemed disorganized or broke down. 3) on the third try, it was just a low chance of success throwing a fade like that. And it doesn’t give your QB any options.

I was really impressed with him (and Benford). It seemed like the coverage was solid. As someone else posted, he did give up a crosser to flowers, but that was due to some miscommunication, it seems. Very encouraging start.

and he later made one of the bone head plays on their last offensive drive. Took that reverse and instead of trying to actually run up field (where there was room), he just weirdly slid for no gain. That put them in 3rd and long and we got the ball back.

This is where I am at. As a player, you really want to go around against the sideline and taunt the opposing fans? That is just asking for trouble. i found that the ravens were more focused on talking trash all second half than winning.

I still can’t believe the Browns lost that game.

Correct me if I am wrong, but were there no injuries in that entire game?

How cool was Josh on that last drive? He knew all we needed was a FG and didn’t force anything.

I enjoyed how he made it look so easy.

How about these wonderful breaks and bounces we got? 1) Keon getting tripped, so we can run out the clock 2) Baltimore downs punt at 1, but player grazes the end zone line. 3) 4th down tipped ball TD 4) raven pick that touched the ground 5) bobbled catch by Hawes 6) Henry fumbles! 7) prater GW FG was partially blocked, and still goes in! this is our year!!

Enjoy it! When do all these magical breaks ever go our way?!
